Go around the water box if on street tires. Put the car in 1st and make a quick spin of the tires to get the dirt off. Pull up to the line, put it in 3rd. Hold brake down, give it gas just enough to feel a slight surging, let off the brake and give it a little less than 3/4 then get it full throttle as fast as you can without spinning.

Practice really helps, I forgot what rpm I launch the GTP at, I've been driving the SHO way too much.

Some people are able to launch it fine without bringing the rpms up to launch, just sit with the brake held so you don't roll forward and gas, then just get on it as soon as the light drops without spinning much.
